How to Wear Leather Shorts

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Emory chapter.

Fall is just around the corner, but weather in Atlanta makes it nearly impossible to start incorporating our favorite fall looks. Sweaters, boots, and scarves may have to wait to all be worn together, but it is definitely still possible to make fall fashion heat friendly. Leather may be a little heavy, but luckily leather shorts make this beautiful material the perfect way to introduce a fall staple while the temperatures are still so high. Here are some easy ways to rock leather shorts: 

 

During the day: Pair black leather shorts with a graphic tee and statement pendant to look stylish on the way to a class. This outfit is comfy and can be thrown together in seconds! 

 

These earthy green leather shorts are easy to transform from day to night:

During the day throw them with a simple tank top, comfy sandals, and a cute pair of sunglasses to complete the look! 

Nightime: grab a pair of heels, a red lip, sexy top, and cuff bracelet

Distinguishing between daytime casual and nighttime fancy is key when wearing leather shorts. Nighttime is the perfect opportunity to rock those new heels you’ve been dying to wear, but during the day, remember to pair leather shorts with a comfy shirt and more simple jewlery in order to make the outfit more appropriate for daylight.
